Well-being at Biola
Fostering your whole person well-being
When Biola thinks about well-being, we think about supporting you as a whole person. We want to help you cultivate your well-being as you steward the physical, spiritual, intellectual, emotional, relational and culturally diverse ways God created you to be.
Resources to support all these aspects of your well-being are provided by departments across Biola and integrated into the daily life of a student. Your role in cultivating your well-being is to identify your own strengths and needs, then reach out and engage in what is most helpful for you.
Areas of Well-being
We invite you to browse the menu detailing the six areas of well-being and check out the Well-being Toolbox designed by students, for students. As you browse, consider these questions: What are your areas of strength? What needs come to the surface? Which of the many and diverse resources at Biola might be most helpful for you right now?
